Macs

The Apple Mac line of laptops and computers continue to grow in functionality and cool-factor meaning popularity also grows. Whether you prefer the sleek look of a Mac Book Air or the extreme performance power of a Mac (or anything in between), here we share the latest information and product news about the various Mac lines.

We live in a world where we are a whole lot mobile, especially in our work. The traditional confines of the office does not cut the mustard any more for a whole lot of industries, and that is fine, as long as people are productive and able to deliver value regardless of where they are. Well, if you have ever gone out to work solo before, sitting at a Starbucks or other public areas while hammering out the details of that business proposal, I am quite sure that there were moments when you needed to answer nature’s call. This meant leaving your notebook on the table as you make a dash for it. This would leave your notebook vulnerable to theft, but thankfully for MacBook owners, there is the MacBook 12″ Lock from Maclocks.

When it comes to modern day computing accessories, there is one particular name that we should always keep in mind — Satechi. After all, they have rolled out their fair share of peripherals over the years to keep us convinced that there is nothing but quality behind their lines, and the same can be said of their latest expansion in the Metallic Series which will keep company the new rose gold MacBook, iPhone® and Apple Watch.

There is nothing quite like having the feeling of owning your very first notebook – and for some of us, even more so if that notebook happens to be an Apple device, which would be one of the MacBook models. These are great looking notebooks, and it would be even better if you were to be able to offer a certain degree of protection for them. Hence, if you are a proud owner of the MacBook Air or MacBook Pro Retina, Booq has something special for you in the form of the spanking new Slimsuit 13.

Whether you run your own podcast, record let’s plays, or just chat with friends on Skype, you’re going to need a microphone. Of course, the reason for which you have the mic is going to determine what type of device you’ll want to have around. If you’re trying to go for professional audio, you’ll not only need a high-quality mic, but a pop filter, shock mount, quiet place to record, and software that will let you clean it up nicely.

Some products are advertised in such a way that makes it glaringly obvious they are meant to be paired with certain brand-name devices. Anything that is airbrushed aluminum with white or black plastic and a minimalist design is likely going to have photos of it paired with Apple products. Whether or not it actually works well enough to meet the price range it’s aiming for is the thing you’ll want to be wary of.

It is always great to move along with the times, and hardware as well as accessory manufacturers know this if they are to remain at the cutting edge of things. Having said that, Limefuel has just announced a brand new Macbook charger that has been specially designed around the new USB Type C technology in order to deliver quick, efficient charging of newer devices. Basically, for those who would like to travel without having to worry about the presence of a power outlet nearby, the spanking new 24,000mAh portable Apple Macbook charger from Limefuel ensures that your precious laptop will be able to keep going all day long.

This portable Apple Macbook charger holds the distinction of being the first portable charger which will be able to support the brand new Type C standard for the recently announced 12” Macbook. This new charger will boast of a pair of Type C ports as well as a quartet of USB ports which can be used to juice up other mobile devices, too. In addition, there is the pass-through technology that will pave the way for multiple devices to be charged simultaneously – isn’t this a game changer and a time saver, all rolled into one? Expect the Limefuel portable Macbook charger to be available some time later in the second quarter of the year for $149.99 a pop.

I would like to think that it is never enough getting the right amount of USB ports on a computer, since leaving at the very least of one spare USB port is always handy, taking into account the number of devices these days that charge up via USB, as well as perform data transfer. Well, if you are a Mac user and have long wanted to complement your desktop machine with a USB hub, but have never really managed to come across a design which is capable of delighting your palates, might we suggest taking a look in the direction of the Satechi Aluminum Clamp Hub?

The MacBook Air from Apple has just received an update that will definitely go down well with folks who wished that the extremely thin and light notebook will arrive with better hardware specifications. In fact, Apple has decided to introduce a slew of faster processors without increasing the price. On the contrary, the folks over at Apple have decided that a price drop is in store, where you will be able to pick up an updated MacBook Air from just $899 a pop.
